v16.5.1: Easily add games that come up as “Unrecognized Barcode”

December 14th, 2016


Easily add games that come up as “Unrecognized Barcode”

  • In Add Games Automatically, when a barcode is not recognized, a new “Unrecognized Barcode” screen will appear.
  • In this screen:
    1. Just find your game by platform and title (Search-As-You-Type is also active here!)
    2. Use the integrated Find Cover tool to select the cover image.
    3. Then click Add Game.
  • This will:
    1. Instantly add the barcode to OUR Core online game database, connected to the game you selected.
    2. Add the game to YOUR database with full game details, your barcode and image AND linked to the new Core entry.

In other words, this new screen not only helps you in adding unrecognized games,
but it also helps your fellow Game Collector users by adding the missing barcode to the CLZ Core.

Fixed:

  • Credits grid: problems adding credits when multiple persons exists with the same display name.
  • Export to HTML could throw a “Reference to undeclared entity: ‘nbsp'” error with some settings.
